Turnitin: Submit a Single Paper to Turnitin (FACULTY ONLY)

Introduction

Occasionally a professor will ask if it is possible to submit a single paper to Turnitin, separately from any assignment in Brightspace/CLASSES; they can do so by following this guide. The easiest way to accomplish this is the "Quick Submit" button.

Instructions

Using the Quick Submit Button

  1. Go to turnitin.com and hit the Login button in the upper right to log in using your Turnitin credentials
    login
     
    • NOTE: If the professor has never created a Turnitin assignment before, they will not be able to log in to the Turnitin website. This problem can be solved by either creating a dummy assignment, or by putting in a HelpDesk ticket with Academic Technology so we can add them to our account. Please refer to the Adding Professors to Turnitin Account article.
       
  2. Along the tabs at the top of the window, hit the Quick Submit button
    quick submit
  3. On the next screen, check the three boxes to ensure that Turnitin checks the paper against as many resources as possible, and click on Submitcheck boxes
  4. You will be taken to the normal window for uploading documents to Turnitin; documents that have been submitted using the Quick Submit button can be accessed in the future by logging back into turnitin.com and hitting the Quick Submit button again; a list of previously submitted documents will appear.
